Product analysis tasks
The product analysis tasks involve specifying the software product requirements 
given its role within the operational concepts. The operational concepts and scenar-
ios should be evaluated to identify the functional and performance characteristics 
associated with the data processing actions that the software product must exhibit. 
Details concerning the elements that need to be expressed by an operational model 
are discussed in task 8.3.2, identify functional behaviors (see 
Figure 8.1
).
During architecture definition, the product requirements will be decomposed 
and allocated to functional and structural units and components. These tasks should 
be selectively performed to specify the requirements for each element of the soft-
ware product architecture.
